More DescriptionThis book is intended as a supplement for undergraduate courses in Kinematics or Dynamics of Mechanisms, taught in Mechanical Engineering departments. As a MATLAB#65533; supplement, it can be used with any standard textbook, including Norton's DESIGN OF MACHINERY Second Edition, Erdman/Sandor's MECHANISMS DESIGN, Third Edition, or Mabie/Reinholtz MECHANISMS AND DYNAMICS OF MACHINERY, Fourth Edition. The emphasis of the text is integrating the computational power of MATLAB#65533; into the analysis and design of mechanisms. This new book in Brooks/Cole's Bookware Companion Series™ is the first to apply the use of MATLAB#65533; to the study of kinematics and dynamics of mechanisms. This book is intended as a useful guide for readers interested in understanding kinematics, or as a reference for practicing mechanical engineers. It provides detailed instruction and examples showing how to use MATLAB#65533; (increasingly, the software program of choice among engineers for complex computations) and its accompanying simulation environment, SIMULINK#65533;, to develop powerful and accurate computer simulations of constrained mechanical systems.
